[The Flying Scotsman]

OOC: So this will be the thread where all the RP'ing related to my civil war will be contained. If any 'foreign powers' would like to get involved please pm me with what you would like to do and I will let you know whether it fits with my story line or not. Feel free to pick whichever side you want if you do want to get involved, if you pick the winning side it will be kudos to you and the benefit of uber freindliness from my new government. If you back one of the losing sides, its ok, I wont hold it against you. So feel free to try and take advantage of my weak state and carve me up and meddle in my civil war. WHAT FUN!!!

So I have one last faction to introduce, then I will give a brief over view with a map


IC:

He cut a commanding presence as he walked into the radio booth, at 6 feet 5 inches he towered over those around him. He removed his General's Hat and sat down. He glanced at the technicians who gave a thumbs up, he was being broadcast live. He leaned forward and began to speak.

Soldiers and citizens of Garretia, this is a black day in the history of our proud nation. Our President lies slain at the hands of a foul terrorist bent on subjugating us under his insane heel. Our government has walled itsself up in the fortress that once was our shining capital, St. Petersburg. While they sit in the safety of their palaces they have abandoned the citizens of this proud nation to the terrorists and extremists, drawing our military to the capitol to make sure they are not harmed.

They are no better than this 'freedom fighting' organization known as the KSP, if not worse. At least the KSP is upfront in their desire to kill us, our government withdraws all protection with the promise that they will come get us later. They are despicable.

The cowardice in our government has drive the final nail into the coffin of the Garretian Federation, more and more factions are popping up every day proclaiming their independence. Someone must put a stop to this and restore Garretia to the glory she rightfully deserves. Someone must protect our people from these savages, terrorists, and most importantly, the idiots in St. Petersburg who call themselves our government.

With your help my fellow citizens, I intend that person to be me. Just like the great hero Illyushkin the Senior united the warring states of this region to form the Garretian Federation many decades ago, so do I, General Pyoter Duncan, intend to lead Garretians to a new, brighter day. With you behind me my freinds, we shall march up and down the length of this country until all these self-serving rebel and terrorist groups are wiped away. And then we shall march on St. Petersburg and drive out the corruption and cowardice that hangs like a shroud over our proud capital.

I ask that you join me soldiers and citizens of Garretia, so that we may restore our homeland's greatness.

The general looks to the technicians who signal that the broadcast is over. Putting on his hat, he strides quickly out of the building to a waiting jeep, his breath rising in a cloud of steam in the frigid Murmansk air. As he approaches a man in a colonel's uniform gets out of the jeep and hails the approaching general.

"Hey Pyoter, just got of the radio with Camp Federalia over on the Kola Peninsula, that must have been one powerful address you just gave, because they are ignoring their orders from St. Petersburg and are coming to join us."

Pyoter was stunned, his shock quickly turned to eager excitement

"How many men?! How many tanks?! By Garretia this is better than I had hoped for!"

"The guy I talked to a ... colonel Vidra, said they had 3,000 regular infantry, 20 tanks, a s*#t load of trucks and jeeps. Oh, and more good news, calls have been coming in from towns all over the Province supporting your cause Pyotr, looks like Murmansk and teh Kola Peninsula are ours"

The colonel gave a wry smile

"Now all we have to do Pyotr is defeat the 90,000 or so guys who are out to kill us now"

"Come now Vasiliy, you know me, they wont stand a chance"

The two climbed into the jeep and drove off towards the City of Murmansk, a light snow falling around them

[JEDCJT]

OOC: Yay! Teh fun begins!
Wait.........where's teh Map?!

[The Flying Scotsman]

OOC: Overview time:

So, the factions are:

-Green: General Duncan and the 'Reformationists"
-Yellow: The Karelian Seperatist Front
-Pink: The Harbringer and the KSP
-Tan: The Tver Directorate for Public Safety.
-Grey Square: The Federal Government holed up in St. Petersburg, its a veritable fortress city now, trenches, artillery, pillboxes, barbed wire, AA, tank traps, etc.

The blue circle is the city of Petrozha, Capital of the Karelian Republic. The Red circle is Vyborg, the largest city under KSP control. The big black circle in the North is Murmansk, temporary capital of the Reformationists. The Orange Circle in the South is Tver, capital of the Tver Directorate.
And finally the provinces:
I-Murmansk Province
II-Karelia Province
III-Kola Province
IV-Zebir Province
V- Illyushkin Province
VI- Federalia East
VII- Tver Province
VIII-Latonia Province
IX- Federalia West

And I think that should be it.


Let the warring begin!!!!



STEALTHEDIT: Hrmm teh map doesnt like me, will have to work on fixing that.

OOC:Important Note: With the death of the president, Garretian has been removed from REPO.

[The Flying Scotsman]

OOC: That is a VERY important note, and i hope the map is big and fugley enough for you

[Subtleknifewielder]

Oficially, Promised Land supports no side in this war.

***Unofficial, classified Report***

The Established government has indeed proven corrupt, deciding to hide like cowardly dogs they are. The Karelian Seperatist Front The Harbringer and the KSP are no better. Overall, this General Duncan seems the best choice...I reccomend we attempt to make contact.

***End Report***

***Classified Action***

One of the fastest jets in Promised Land possession was hurriedly scrambled, containing only the pilot and one passenger, and no weapons. It would make its way due North, too high to be detected by any of the less advanced island nations it passed over. As soon as it went far enough North, it would turn west to go around Forever Battlefield, then once Past Vaule, turn south towards its final destination in the once- Garretian Federation...

[Silhouette]

New Cymru throws it's support behind the forces of General Duncan, and can send troops to reinforce their holdings immediately if the General so desires.

*******

Please ignore our last transmission, the official that made that statement has been relieved and arrested for drug possession. That transmission does not represent the government's stance, of which we currently have none....

[Razgriz 2K9]

The Ustio Commonwealth will make no statement.

==Unofficial Message==
With the Gov't holed up in St. Petersburg, the KSP a bunch of murderers and the Karelians no more better to stabilize the Federation, we rely on the Reformationists and the Tver forces to win this war.

[BaronUberstein]

Ubersteinian troops have lined up against the boarder, bombing campaigns have begun against the rebels.

OOC: Uh, WHICH set of rebels? There are four rebel factions plus the etablished Government...

OOC: All of them, I plan to bring order, because I don't like this happening right next to me.

IC:

50,000 Ubersteinian troops (5 Divisions) and 500 tanks have assembled on the Finland-Garretian boarder. The Ubersteinian Airforce has started air-superiority runs and strategic strikes. Photos are taken from high-altitude bombers to attempt to find enemy positions.

Tank makeup:
+200 Steinhammers
+200 Vessla Orm (Tank)
+25 Vessla Orn (Anti-Air)

OOC: I'm pretty sure he doesn't want the established, uh, "Cowardly" government to win.

IC: ***Classified***

The jet that had taken off quite some time ago slowed considerably upon nearing the Garretian shore. They had been briefed that Uberstein would likely begin bombing anyone he saw as a threat, so they were not taking any chances, and the target area was toward the end of the peninsula, the furthest possible distance from Uberstein's empire.

When they had reached the designated coordinates, the pilot ejected the passenger's seat, which instead of having a regular parachute, had a paraglider, so the person in the seat could control, to some extent, where he or she landed.

With its mission accomplished, the jet turned right around, its fuel running low, and headed for the Vaulian Island claim to ask for permission to land. If questioned, the pilot would say he had been sent on a routine survey of the Arctic Circle, but his instruments had malfunctioned, and he needed to land to refuel and repair said instruments.

The agent being paradropped slowly fell to earth, likely being observed by General Duncan or one of his followers...

***Private Message from Vaule Military Command***

Vaule will permit the jet to land at the New Edwards Air Force Base in North Novaya Zemlya to refuel. We only require that the jet be inspected upon landing to ensure that it does not pose a danger to Vaule.

OOC:


Erk, an Ubersteinian invasion was not what I had planned. Hrmm, how to counter this....


IC:

The phone rings in General Duncan's Headquarters. Vasiliy picks it up and speaks breifly with the person on the other end before hanging it to the General

"Sir, one of our patrols picked up an agent claiming to hail from Promised Land. He claims to be from their government and he says (OOC: he/she?) wants urgently to speak to you."

"Very well, tell them to bring them here"


Vasiliy relays the general's instructions to the patrol commander and hangs up. No sooner does he do so than a fax comes in, Vasiliy picks it up and reads it, a look of disgust coming across his face.
"Uh... it looks like our friend the Baron is amassing troops along the border, upwards of 40,000 by the looks of it, a good number of tanks as well. And radar crews are picking up Ubersteinian incursions into our airspace, this bodes very poorly for us"

General Duncan was enraged at the news, slamming his fist down into the table

"Well, I guess its time to parley with the good Baron. Vasiliy I want you to try and establish contact with Ubersteinia somehow, see if we cant guarantee our own safety here."

Not good Pyoter thought, not good at all. If Uberstein got involved his reformation attempts would be doomed to failure, the Ubersteinian military was a force to be reckoned with, he had seen that first hand as a REPO military observer. He would have to win Uberstein over to his side if he were to have a chance of winning.


****Classified communique to Ubersteinia******
We have detected your troop movements, please advise on intent, we have no desire to fight you, the restoration of Garretian stability are both your goals and ours. Requesting a meeting between us to work out an agreement.
-General Duncan, Commander, Reformationist Forces of Garretia

****End communique*****

A private reply was sent to Garretian command:

An American general once said, “A man must know his destiny… if he does not recognize it, then he is lost. By this I mean, once, twice, or at the very most, three times, fate will reach out and tap a man on the shoulder… if he has the imagination, he will turn around and fate will point out to him what fork in the road he should take, if he has the guts, he will take it.”
Fate is tapping me on the shoulder now, Mr. Duncan.

OOC: A Tahoan General said that thank you very much General George Patton was born in Tahoe after all, and served in the Tahoe Army

IC: The Government of the Tahoe Republic has no official position except to wish the legitimate Federal Government well. Rebellions can never be tolerated if they bring nothing but war and destruction with no path to peace. We hope peace is achieved as soon as possible.
